This post is misleading: There's no evidence that the digital assistant named Alexa is actively spying its users. The requests going to the cloud are stored and encrypted. Therefore, these are inaccessible to any member of Amazon. https://english.elpais.com/science-tech/2023-06-03/are-siri-google-and-alexa-spying-on-us.html https://www.makeuseof.com/is-amazon-alexa-spying-on-you/ https://www.the-ambient.com/guides/does-amazon-alexa-echo-speaker-listen-conversations-2785

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1715795550539243806
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
